Inside the home, Police say Everett Conant III opened fire
on his three kids, wife and brother. As police arrived, Conant's wife
ran down the street for her life having already been shot in the arm and
foot.

"I got some towels and I wrapped the towels up with the
would so it wouldn't bleed too much. I just tried to keep her as calm,
you know, calm her down as much as I could," Kornder said.

After a
10 minute stand-off, Conant surrendered without incident. Inside, an
entry team found Conant's three children shot to death and his brother
suffering wounds, from which he would die of at the hospital around
6:30.

The tragic scene has shaken the small town of 3,600 who has only experienced two murders in the last 10 years.

"They've been in my house and played my Playstation," 8-year-old family friend John Kornder said.
